Anyone who made it through 2021 - with all the various lock-downs and restrictions - needs a medal. Well done.
Here are some photos from Joseph, Emily and Luke. Joseph & Richard managed to visit us in September, the first time we'd seen them in the flesh since the wedding in March 2020. Emily spent a very active year body boarding, climbing and camping as well as visiting family in London and the 'famous' Marble Arch mound. Luke and Sarah became proud homeowners in July and have been busy moulding the house to their taste.
As restrictions lifted, we filled the second half of the year with workshops at various festivals, eco markets and fairs to promote renewable energy and helping build resilience to climate change. Off-grid solar power, Haybox thermal cookers and rocket stoves were on display.
We visited Belper, Shrewsbury, Pickering, Fulford, Redcar, Kirkstall Abbey in Leeds and York with our pop-up stall, demos and banners. There was much interest in the flat pack rocket stoves - ask if you want to know more!
Here is a small selection from our short breaks and trips - NY Moors, Northumberland, Lake District and the Dales. Pretty much all local holidays this year. Also a Covid secure trip to the Ballet plus all dressed up for Valentines Day dinner at home.
2021 was also good year for the garden, both at home and at Beetle Bank Farm.
We wish all our friends and family a peaceful New Year.
Jane & Seggy
Beautifully narrated of your activities and that of the family. I am slightly envious of some of the locations you have visited...looks idyllic indeed. For safety reasons, we hardly step out of the front door except for medical needs and essential groceries. Thiru uncle had a small growth on his scalp which was found to be cancerous and he has had the surgery with skin graft. He is doing well at present. Sending you all our best wishes for 2022.
